Colorblindness Health Screening with EnChroma
The Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts (AEIVA) and Arts in Medicine at UAB are proud to sponsor a new community health initiative offering free color vision deficiency screenings—helping people of all ages see the world more clearly. Whether you’re a student, parent, artist, or simply curious about your own vision, these quick, non-invasive tests can uncover color vision issues that often go undetected but impact learning, work, and daily life. Students from the School of Optometry would be available to answer questions, and in partnership with EnChroma, participants in this program will be entered into a giveaway for their own pair of EnChroma colorblind glasses.
The screening will be held at AEIVA on September 25 from 3to 6 PM and there is no cost; this is a drop-in event, registration is not required.
This event is part of a partnership with EnChroma in recognition of Colorblind Awareness Month.
